The QControl Toolkit by Q Software Innovations is an object-oriented and extensible alternative to XControls. Use the QControl Toolkit framework and the QControl Creation Wizard to create QControl Classes and receive the benefits of XControls without the headaches. Take advantage of easy UI logic code reuse. Encapsulate and decouple the UI logic away from the business logic of the main application and from the UI skin. Use wherever the VI Server and LabVIEW object-oriented programming are allowed. Easily extend the capabilities of current LabVIEW controls through access to all properties available at run time. And easily use the toolkit with more complex frameworks like the Actor Framework or other plugin architectures where LabVIEW libraries and packed project libraries are used and where XControls can behave unpredictably.

QSI Documentation Editor

The Documentation Editor provides an easy way to keep up with your documentation requirements at the speed at which you program in the LabVIEW™ environment. ​ ​ Edit the description of VIs, Controls (*.ctl), Projects (*.lvproj), Libraries (*.lvlib), Classes (*.lvclass), and XControls (*.xctl) quick and easily. Navigate through a familiar Project Explorer like navigation pane to switch between files and load Projects, Libraries, Classes, or XControls. Use a fully enabled text editor with bold formatting controls similar to word processing programs. There is also the option have both specific documentation and common documentation information. Specific documentation is applied to only the selected item but Common documentation can be applied to all items in the Project, Library, Class, or XControl (i.e. copyright information, programmer contact information, etc).
